Horsie #2

Hello beautifuls!
Today I've been in the stable for more than 3 hours = good day :D I've rode in the woods with GANDUUUUUR (..;)..) and I took it very easy last time, we just walked because I didn't wanna try trott or canter/gallopp right away :p But today we took it a little further.
I don't know if I told you this in my last post about the horses if you haven't read it you can do it HERE, but the horses are of the breed Icelandic Horses and they don't just have walk, trot and canter/gallop, they can also have two more, I think it's called one of them is called rack but the other I'm not sure. I've seen english people write it as we do in Sweden so I just go with that ;p it's tölt. I'm not gonna explain what it is but anyway. 
So today we tried some trott and tölt, and Gandur listened to all my signals and he was lovely! 
He was stronger on the way home so it was a bit hard to stop him while he was trotting, but it worked out well when he got below the bit, you get more control of him when he do that :P
(So boring to give you photos like this, I will try to bring a friend with me so you can get better photos on him)

When I got back to the stable I saw Yvonne, she was going to ride Orvar so she asked me to follow them so she could show me some good riding tracks. Orvar is just 6 years old so he is a bit careful. But when he saw a big plant in the middle of the road he decided to a little to fast stop so Yvonne fell of but she stood up and it was no worries. I got to go first because Orvar was afraid of the plant, but Gandur just walked right over it, hahah.
When we got back to the stable Orvar decided to do something similar as the plant situation so Yvonne fell of again and this time she fell on her back, which didn't felt so good :/

Then I took a walk with Alvar, he is still has his injury so I can't ride him, but he is nice to walk with as well :)
